    This is BY FAR the most underrated video I've ever seen on RUclips. The first time I watched this, I had to pause multiple times to let the pain from the excessive laughter subside. I'm honestly surprised it doesn't have millions of views.

  • @sha1om
    @sha1om 10 лет назад +37

    Didja notice? The squirrel figures out how to stop the spin at about 4:15, but only for as long as he can hold on. He lasts about a minute and a half, but right as the TV commercial says "Perseverance, never give up . . ." -- he loses it and starts spinning again.

    So much for a "Squirrel Proof Feeder". First pest takes a ride on the carnival ride, offsetting the center of gravity so bad it slings food all over the ground for pest #2 to have a feast.Pest #1 then jams a foot into a feed hole, jamming the motor and stuffs himself with seed.Thanks for posting this video to help me make up my mind to wave off this feeder.

    Wow, I was set to go buy one for my dad for Christmas until I saw this, his squirrels are smart. The video the company who sells them shows sure doesn't demonstrate them holding on like that! The only way I'd buy it is if I believed that it would pay for itself in the long run by saving me money in seed, doesn't look like that's going to happen, at least not with the smart squirrels.

    I always LOL watching squirrels on these feeders. Never had a feeder like this, but I heard the squirrel will spin forever until the batteries run out on feeder? Then squirrel gets easy meal. Lots of bite marks on feeder when that happens! A lot of seeds spill out. It's mostly fun to watch the squirrel spinning around. Great for laughs, so long as the battery stays alive. I wonder what's the record for "squirrel spinning" until the battery dies?

  • @jay733

    This could be a good place for a Squirrel Zapper. Some folks have built them. Or even a Squirrel Zipper. It would simply drop the plucky squirrel into a handy pouch and zip him inside. He could then be safely and sanitarily relocated to someones else's neighborhood. Like 50 or 60 miles away.

    Sacrificing himself to shake out a few nuggets of feed.
    Smart bugger, the sooner the battery's wound down, the sooner he can get some feed. The motor needs to be a bit slower. The goal is to prevent the squirrel from grabbing any seed. Set it slow enough not to run down the battery quickly, and fast enough to keep the seed out of reach.

I think they hate the motion and the noise. Same happens if a blue jays or other big bird triggers it. You got the LeBron James of squirrels. I also have the “flipper” model by the same company and the squirrels just drop right off it like the floor falling out. Works great
